Amid rumors that their marriage has hit a rough patch, Gwen Stefani has shared an update on her relationship with Blake Shelton in a new Instagram post. In early January, Life & Style reported that a source told them, “Gwen and Blake’s marriage is definitely in trouble . Lately, they’ve been at odds about everything from career decisions and the parenting of her three boys to where they spend most of their time. The tension continues to grow, and Blake and Gwen are drifting apart as a result.” (While Shelton and Stefani do not have children together, she has three kids from her previous marriage to musician Gavin Rossdale .)

The Life & Style source also claimed that Stefani and Shelton have “been fighting,” that she is “hurt” that Shelton does not support her projects on social media, that their separate New Year’s Eve plans were a pain point, and that Shelton stated publicly that he plans to cut back on drinking to “appease” Stefani, because she “doesn’t really like him boozing.” The source added, “Gwen and Blake are leading separate lives. It’s very sad, but the writing seems to be on the wall for their marriage.” Best Life previously reached out to Shelton and Stefani for comment on the report.

While neither star has directly refuted these claims, Stefani’s Instagram post was interpreted by many as a denial that they’re experiencing anything but wedded bliss.

On Monday, Jan. 29, the No Doubt singer posted a photo of a small Polaroid next to a small bouquet of irises on a marble surface. The Polaroid is of Stefani and Shelton hugging each other and smiling. Written on the bottom in what may be Stefani’s handwriting is the phrase “never knew a love like this” and a heart. She captioned the Instagram with a purple flower emoji and a white heart emoji. Stefani also shared the post on her Instagram Story, and Shelton re-posted it to his Story, as well.

Meanwhile, some fans believe that the post is teasing another musical collaboration between the spouses. They have already released a few duets together, including “You Make It Feel Like Christmas” and ” Nobody But You.” One fan wrote, “New single? A duet with Blake?!?” on the photo. Another posted, “PLEASE. We need the announcement, Gwen!”
